UNITED STATES v. DONAHUE (2019)

Timothy James Donahue seeks to appeal the district court's order denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant's brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Donahue's informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court's disposition, Donahue has forfeited appellate review of the court's order. See Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014). Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
